Biography
Jughead's Revenge
After Doherty met guitarist Joe Rimicci and bassist Brian Preiss at a COA band practice, he started Jughead's Revenge in 1989, when he was only 18 and a half years old.[3] Cited as one of the seminal California punk groups, Jughead's Revenge released six full-length albums and was active until 2001, when they were forced to split up after a lawsuit from Archie Comics, which led the band to change their name to Jugg's Revenge.[4][5]
It was announced in December 2009 that Doherty would be touring and possibly recording again with Jughead's Revenge.[6] He was present at their first reunion show at the Scotland Yard in Canoga Park, California on March 20, 2010, and the band plans to play more live venues after this.[7]
